The programme reinforced everything I have learnt at rehearsals and in my two singing lessons with Lea. It has helped with my breathing in particular and the use of air without forcing the sound. There is so much to learn and I love that I can go back and do the exercises. It is very easy to follow. Thank you

I've been singing women's barbershop for almost 10 years, and Lea's course was an excellent program that put all the elements of singing together in one connected program. Although through coaching I was already aware of many of the concepts, my time was well spent re-visiting them. Overall, the course has sharpened my focus to enable me to be a better singer and section and chorus member. I liked how you could do as much or as little as you want each time and come back for more later. And I can still go back and revisit again any time I need to. Thanks Lea - great product!
